CHAPTER 15

***Kristen's POV***

"James!"

No way he is the one that hit us. I can't handle this. I stop in my tracks when I see him. I don't want something to happen to Marcel cause of this jerk. He has tried to get me back so many times, he used my mom dying and my father leaving an excuse to move in with him.

"Ma-ma-mar-marcel. Th-th-thats my ex-boyfriend." I whisper to him.

"Who? The guy that hit us."

I nod scared of what might happen now. I'm even more scared than before.

"We should leave. I understand if you don't want to stay. I don't feel comfortable with you in here with him." He tells me. I understand that he doesn't want me here. Shot I barely want to be here. I hate being near him. Why most he be here, oh I know why I'm here. More than likely that is the only reason why he is here. I want him to leave now, he has done too much to me to do this. I don't want him near Marcel, Anne, Gemma, or me. I don't care if he hurts me, I don't him to hurt Marcel. Marcel has been through so much and I don't want him to get hurt from some douche bag like him.

"I could um, um, I don't know. Marcel I'm I'm I'm scared. I don't want him to hurt you or Gemma, or Anne. I can't live with myself if he did something to any of you and I know its my fault."

"Kristen listen to me, he is not getting out of this easily. We will put him through hell and back. I don't want him to walk out of here, not paying or going to jail. Either one will be good with me, if he is a threat to you or us I will protect you or die trying."

"Marcel I don't want you to die cause of me, I couldn't live with myself and you know it. I have told you th-"

Marcel slams his lips onto mine like I did earily. God we should really babble more often. I kiss him back and slowly slide my hand up his chest. I put my hands on his face and he rubs his thumbs against my cheek. This makes me happy its so calming yet romantic. I love everything he does. I pull away and lean my head against his, we stay like this for a while. I feel James eyes on me. I know he was watching but, I really don't give a care, I love Marcel and I don't care about PDA. I mean come on people I'm a teen let me kiss the man, boy, teenager, whatever you would call him, I love in public. People do it all the time.

"Are you calm?"

"You only kissed me so I could calm down!"

"No. Of course not. I did it cause you did it earlier and I couldn't help myself from it, your lips were torturing me." Marcel tells me and his cheeks light up with a bright red. Aww he's blushing, I love it when Marcel blushes cause he's so light that he will make anything look good.

"Oh. I didn't know that."

"Yes. I wanted to kiss you since we got in the car but, it was to quiet and I thought it would have been weird with my mum and sister staring at us."

"Um Marcel they are still staring at us. I don't think it makes a different."

"Well I don't know now. Ughh"

"Everyone please stand." The officer in the corner of the room says.

Everyone stands as the judge comes in. He is wearing the black rub and is white. He has lost most of his hair on the top of his head, it looks like it fell down to his face with all that hair on it.

"You may be seated." The judge says. Marcel and I sit on one side with are lawyers. I didn't know I had a lawyer, when did I get one of those.

"Mr. Styles please come forward."

Marcel walks up and he takes a while since he still has to use those crutches. The officer walks over to him and has a book in his hand. Marcel places his left hand on it and raises his right.

"Will you tell the truth nothing but the truth and only the truth?"

"I will tell the truth nothing but the truth and only the truth." Marcel says back and the officer nods at him.

"Miss. Calim please come forward."

I stand and walk over to the officer that Marcel was once standing at. Luckily it was my left arm that was broken and not my right.

"Will you tell the truth nothing but the truth and only the truth?"

"I will tell the truth nothing but the truth and only the truth."

He nods at me and I go and sit back down. Marcel wraps his arm around my waist and pulls me closer.

"Mr. Tucker please come forward."

He walks up and does the same routine Marcel and I did. I didn't realize we were putting are hand on a bible till now. We basically just said we wouldn't lie to god. Well I wasn't going to lie anyways this is going to terrible. I know Marcel won't lie but, what if he says something that the judge will take into consideration and puts Marcel in jail. I wouldn't have it I will go for him. He has a life after he leaves school I don't. My plan was to try and go to college somewhere in the states and some stuff happened and now I don't ever want to go back there.

"Mr. Tucker will you please come to the witness stand." The judge asked.

He makes his way up and sits down. Are lawyer walks up in front of the judge and starts asking a bunch of question to prove him guilty.

"What made you hit them?"

"I was coming up and the light had turned green, I thought they were going to go and kept driving, next thing I know they are still staying still and I try to stop but, I don't hit the brakes quick enough and hit them." James tells are lawyer. I have known James long enough and I know he is a really good liar.

"Why didn't you slow down when you saw their brake lights were still on?"

"I thought at the time they didn't notice the light was green so I kept going at my speed."

"Do you have any past history with them?"

No not this quwation why did she ask this question.

"Actually I do. With her." He points to me and I feel like the whole world is still moving and I froze in time.

"Kristen is this true? You have a past with him."

"I-i-i-i-i-"

"Don't worry about it. I got it. Her and I dated."

"That is true. We did date but, I ended and I moved here to get away from him. He tried to get me to move in with him. I refused and he almost kidnapped me so I moved away, to here to be more clear."

"Ok I wanted her to move in but, I never tried to make her move in."

"Ok well we back to the main case. Why didn't you stop or slow down?"

"I have already told you that."

"He hasn't told you the truth. I was there. I was a witness in the accident, I wasn't going to come here. I'm glad that I did." We hear someone say. No one knows who it is. I look at Marcel and his face is pale. He knows who just said that.

"Marcel what's wrong?''

"You don't know who said that?"

"No. Should I?"

"Lets just put it this way. He gave me a black eye and we made a promise not to tell he works at McDonald."

"You mean that voice is....John"
